iGear have updated their facebook page with a whole slew of new test shot images of three upcoming figures. First we get a few new images of Mini Warrior UFO, who appears to come with a display stand for flight poses. Next we get our first look at Mini Warrior Hench in color. Lastly we have more images of their Sharkticon homage IG-TF005. Check out all the mirrored images below!

Damn it! I'm ... really liking these.

It's so hard to say no to such awsome TFs.

I'll take one of each, and 3 Sharkticons. Assuming that can is about the same size as a North American pop can (it's 320 mL. ours are 355 mL) then it will fall into the "Beefy Scout" size or so.

The sharkticon looks even better in these pics. I'm seriously super into this figure, but I probably will still paint the blue parts with silver.

Brawn looks sick, I love the leg transformation, nice and solid all round.

Im loving all 3 of them !!!

Glad to see they re-thought Brawn's colors. With a little bit of luck that stupid buzz lightyear helmet on Cosmos will be removable. Someone on here said it was but Im not sure how they confirmed that. Sharticon is dope too, but I hope Renderform can make a weapon for him that doesnt look like a Christmas tree. :D

Pardon the rude language but it looks like the "not" sharkticon is holding some kind of sex toy :???:

I wonder if UFO's smaller size is because of the inclussion of the stand or whether the stand was included because of UFO's smaller size. Or if there's precisely zero connection between the two.

Spot on colours for Hench. Nice work iGear. He looks fantastic. I just hope that his abdomen is big enough for an Autobot symbol.

Gimme pre-orders and I shall make you rich(er)!

If they'd put the ball of the ball joint on the upper arm instead of the forearm he'd have much better articulation.

It looks like Hench's "hood" is on a hinge and might flip back to completely uncover the head?

Very very pleased. I'm actually wondering if they'd consider redoing the first two. AFTER the rest of the series, we get this crap from Masterpiece (and PP).

Your line is "Preorders are now open"
... anytime.

I'm pretty sure UFO is bigger than the first two. Not long ago, iGear said they were throwing out a strict sizing and going to make them vary, but be overall larger.

The only downside that while some 3rd party stuff is clearly beyond what Hasbro would put to market at that scale or complexity, I'm not seeing it here. Well, I don't see them doing teeny guns anymore (least of all modeling real guns), but you know what I mean.

Noithing wrong with any of those really. I for one am actually liking the rubber bits on the sharkticon, especially the colour. I hope they don't change that.

Cosmos is just perfect!!! Well....his feet aren't as good as they could be but whatever. I like the domed head as well. Lots of debris floating around out in space that could get in your eye......lol.

I'm liking those chromed kneecaps on Brawn. Amongst other things of course but i noticed that little detail and thought I'd comment about that. You know Hasbro wouldn't Chrome his kneecaps. Unless they're metal. I can't tell.

Well yes, but I always expect Hasbro to cheap out on paint. Takara could do toys like this no question.

I'm really loving all three, despite Brawns hieght advantage. But lose the Dr Suess X-mas tree tail on the sharkticon. It looks like he's offering Grimlock a snowcone! lol. I'll evem ignore how narrow he is which kinda makes him look like a tick. #-o
